​There is a jumpy quality to every Gemini. With some, it's obvious. With others, not as much, but it will be detectable on some level. It may be a subtle feeling of being rushed to finish your sentences during conversations with them because you are losing their interest. Maybe they give you the feeling that they always have somewhere else they need to be when they are with you. Others literally can't sit still or constantly fidget. They may have a nervous habit like biting their nails or shaking their leg. Constantly checking their mobile devices or changing topics of conversation are other common Gemini traits.

Bottom line, they get bored easily. They are always ready for the next thing, and you can feel it when you are with them. There is a certain electric quality to them.

This is true for all of the air signs. Libra and Aquarius have this tendency as well. Libra comes close followed by Aquarius but it is nowhere near as intense as with Gemini. There are Geminis who are never without bruises or scrapes because they move through life so quickly. In their need to rush to the next thing, they don't take the care necessary to avoid incidental injury. They are the most likely sign to have dents an scratches on their cars because they are in such a hurry. All of this rushing makes it seem that their neurons do fire quickly. It may not be that they are actually smarter than any other sign, but their brains are certainly active.

Many Geminis will tell you, however, that they do feel smarter than the other signs. We will not go down that road. But, suffice it to say that competence in the arena of knowledge is important to them. They are the ones who are knowledgeable about a wide variety of topics, and will have something to add in the conversation regardless of the matter. Especially if it has to do with technology or communication. Geminis will be current on the latest mobile phones available along with how to get the cheapest plan to go with the phone. They will be quite proud of their very up-to-date computer, will be connected with all of the social media, and will always be briefed on the breaking news stories of the day. This holds true for anything from national news to local neighborhood or office gossip. In fact, one of their favorite past times is gossip. Whether it's hearing it or passing it along, they can't wait to get in the loop.

And watch out, even with something as trivial as gossip, they will not hesitate to correct you if you they notice any inaccuracies with your information. And unless you have a really nice Gemini at hand, they won't be worried about being polite while they stop you mid-sentence and issue you corrections. Although there are, of course, very polite and sweet Geminis, more often than not, catering to your feelings is not high on their list of priorities. No, what's important is that the information is correct. Geminis aren't likely to sugar coat anything to spare your feelings. Feelings and politeness can get in the way of accuracy and cloud things. To their credit, when they tell a story or explain something, they try very hard to include all of the details and get them correct. Geminis will even back up and correct themselves if they realize they made an error. This can be a little frustrating to the listener who may not care what day of the week it was when Bobby fell off his bike. But, at least you know your not missing out on any potentially important information! But it works both ways. They aren't likely to be insulted by things you say either. In fact, if you need someone who can get things done quickly, accurately and without any messy emotion or fluff, go to a Gemini.

They will be to the point and won't waste time. Geminis think quickly on their feet and can deal with difficult situations or people without getting ruffled. They will quickly come up with answers and solutions to problems in business situations or any other setting that requires quick, accurate thinking. Geminis can easily match wits with even the toughest smart mouths and win. Despite their sometimes dry and edgy ways, Geminis really are "people people". As a mutable, air sign, they are good with communication and therefore with people. Mixing well in groups while keeping the small talk going are skills which come naturally to them as they excel at casual conversation and can also be very charming. Geminis can cruise through a party and find things in common with most anyone. Keeping it light and witty is fun and people enjoy their company in one-to-one relationships. Geminis will come up with new activities and places to go so you will never get bored. They are open-minded and always interested in trying new things. Introducing you to exciting new experiences and bringing you to new restaurants, clubs or shopping malls will ensure that you never have a dull moment. Simply put, they can be a lot of fun. So make sure you don't squash their spirit. Don't try to tie them to a routine. It will drive them crazy. Geminis thrive on variety and spontaneity. Enjoy it. You'll have the time of your life!

​The Gemini sun strives to be seen by others as socially agile, intelligent, and quick witted. This causes Gemini sun signs to appear either dry and factual, as is the case for the more serious ones. Or if they are one of the lighter ones, there is a whimsically detached air about them. Either way, it often...(Click to read article)
